Overview
Empiric broad-spectrum intravenous antibiotic, preferably with a third generation cephalosporin such as cefotaxime, is warranted for suspected or established spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP) to cover the most common isolates including Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, and Streptococcus pneumoniae. Oral ofloxacin may be considered in selected cases. Albumin infusion should be reserved for patients with ascitic fluid PMN counts greater than or equal to 250 cells/mm3 and clinical suspicion of SBP, who also have a serum creatinine >1 mg/dL, blood urea nitrogen >30 mg/dL, or total bilirubin >4 mg/dL. The use of non-selective beta blockers in cirrhotic patients with SBP should be discouraged since it is associated with an increased risk for hemodynamic compromise, prolonged hospitalization, hepatorenal syndrome, and acute kidney injury.
Medical Therapy Adapted from AASLD Practice Guidelines: Management of Adult Patients with Ascites Due to Cirrhosis.[1]
Empiric Therapy |
---|
Preferred Regimen |
▸ Cefotaxime 2 g IV q8h (or 2 g IV q4h if life-threatening) x 5–10 days |
Alternative Regimen |
▸ Ofloxacin 400 mg PO bid x 5–10 days† OR ▸ Ciprofloxacin 200 mg IV q12h x 7 days† OR ▸ Ciprofloxacin 200 mg IV q12h x 2 days, then 500 mg PO bid x 5 days† |
† Should not be used in a patient who had been receiving a quinolone for prophylaxis.[2][3] |
ESBL–producing Enterobacteriaceae† |
Preferred Regimen |
▸ Doripenem 500 mg IV q8h (1–hr infusion) OR ▸ Ertapenem 1 g IV q24h OR ▸ Imipenem–Cilastatin 0.5–1 g IV q6–8h OR ▸ Meropenem 1 g IV q8h |
Alternative Regimen |
▸ Ciprofloxacin 400 mg IV q12h OR ▸ Levofloxacin 750 mg IV q24h OR ▸ Moxifloxacin 400 mg IV q24h |
† Check in vitro susceptibility.[4][5] |
- Empiric antibiotic therapy should be administered to patients with ascitic fluid PMN counts greater than or equal to 250 cells/mm3 in a clinical setting compatible with ascitic fluid infection or those who have convincing signs or symptoms of infection (fever, abdominal pain, or unexplained encephalopathy) regardless of the PMN count in the ascitic fluid.[6][7]
- Bacterascites is defined as an ascitic neutrophil count less than 250/mm3 but with a positive ascitic fluid culture. If the patient exhibits signs of systemic inflammation or infection, the patient should be treated with antibiotics. Otherwise, the patient should undergo a second paracentesis when culture results turns positive. Patients in whom the repeat ascitic neutrophil count is >250/mm3 should be treated for SBP, and the remaining patients (i.e., neutrophils <250/mm3) should be followed up.[8]
- The most common isolates from the ascitic fluid are Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, and Streptococcus pneumoniae.
- Relatively broad-spectrum therapy, preferably with cefotaxime, is warranted until the results of susceptibility testing are available.
- Infection with multiresistant organism including Extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Enterobacteriaceae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), and Enterococcus faecium is associated with an increased mortality. Risk factors for multiresistant infections include:[9]
- Nosocomial origin of infection
- Long-term norfloxacin prophylaxis
- Recent infection with multiresistant bacteria
- Recent use of beta-lactams
- Oral ofloxacin may be used alternatively in selected cases such as patients without vomiting, shock, grade II (or higher) hepatic encephalopathy, or serum creatinine greater than 3 mg/dL.[10]
- The optimal duration of therapy remains unclear, although most patients respond to a treatment course of five days. Infection-related mortality, bacteriologic cure, and recurrence of ascitic fluid infection were not significantly different between the 5- and 10-day treatment groups in a randomized trial.[11]
- Albumin infusion should be administered to cirrhotic patients with spontaneous bacterial peritonitis in the following conditions:[12]
- Serum creatinine >1 mg/dL
- Blood urea nitrogen >30 mg/dL
- Total bilirubin >4 mg/dL
- Adjunctive intravenous albumin at a dose of 1.5 g/kg at the time of diagnosis, followed by 1 g/kg on day 3 is associated with a reduced incidence of renal impairment and death in comparison with treatment with an antibiotic alone.[13]
- The use of non-selective beta blockers in cirrhotic patients with SBP should be discouraged since it is associated with an increased risk for hemodynamic compromise, prolonged hospitalization, hepatorenal syndrome, and acute kidney injury.[14]
